Maybe the author of the article should read a bit about private key crypto and about AACS before posting such nonsense.
Now AACS discs have a "hard-coded private key"? Gimme a break and learn about cryptography.
And those who say "They can't revoke shit because only the title keys or volume keys or 'master keys' will be published" should maybe stop talking out of their ####, should read the AACS docs at aacsla.com and learn about sequence keys and traitor tracing.
It's incredible all the nonsense that it said since BackupHDDVD has been released. And btw, this software does NOTHING to break AACS, everything in backupHDDVD is publicly available on aacsla.com.
you should cite specific books, versions, and page numbers. as of common spec book 0.91, HD DVD and DVD book 0.912, and prerecorded spec book 0.91, there is no mention of "traitor tracing". also, sequence keys are optional, and, even when used, the volume key method currently implemented for current decryption (seems to me) to bypass any way of using the sequence key against decrypters.
